June is dairy month, and this week we are celebrating all things dairy by gathering the best bloggers together and sharing the best recipes featuring dairy as a main ingredient, and today I am focusing on the wonderful world of cheese!

This from scratch Southern Style Pimento Cheese and bacon Macaroni and Cheese is simply put.. Amazing. The first time I made it, my husband kept saying, wow, over and over. He did sneak back for 2nds.. (more than once).

It is a special recipe that is "company" worthy to make I promise you!

The from scratch sauce made with a combination of Cabot Seriously Sharp Cheddar Cheese, and if you like just a bit more more heat, add a touch of their Chipotle Cheddar. Along with the pimento's (which are mild.. even I can handle them!) it all means a cheese flavor that will wow your taste buds!

The smoky taste of all that bacon? well.. the flavor combination of this dish is fantastic.

Jan's Tip. If you happen to have leftovers, do what my husband does. He fries it in as skillet till the cheese turns brown and crispy. I can't tell you how divine a treat it is to have him bring me a dish of that warmed up dish with all the cheese crispies all in it. You'll never have your leftovers any other way again, I promise! Now let's get cooking!
